NO HOMO
This begins yet another edition of the Game thread, this time extra sweet 'cuz Norfilly won't stop being so damn cute.
The party has successfully felled the Terrasque, removed the head from the Nerd, watched as George Soros got his fool head blown off and was BTFO yet again (how WILL he live down the infamy?) and now ventures off to collect sticks, or build telescopes, or whatever it is they plan to do now that there's a new thread that isn't over 1.1k posts.
There is now an official bath-house, and characters seem quite taken by it both in spite of and to troll any detractors who would otherwise throw salt in our fun.
This is an ongoing RPG thread geared toward D&D-esque adventuring, shitposting, funposting, bantz, shitposting, funposting, and murder.
Feel free to join! The bathwater (and blood) is nice.

>>20080You know, all your sneaking around and shiesty shit could easily be mitigated by Tracy declaring in one way or another "Hey, in case you didn't know, I may have to sneak around and do some sheisty shit from time to time, but don't worry, you'll all be better off for it"
>>20077Ikr, but now I remember how hard wood working is
>>20082Belt-sander or table-grinder
>>20078Infernius isn't dumb enough to piss-off Tracy when she's a pin's drop away from making Chinese Medicine out of his horn,
unless he actually is, idk.Besides, I don't intend to cause any explict ruckus among the lawful residents of Port Barry.
>>20081I could've sworn I had her say something that months ago, but Trumpaladin just wouldn't have any of it..
Control freak...
>>20081As I said, my model for Trump good is Anerican foreign policy under Republican presidents, like Saint Reagan. Assassinations, coups, propping dictators, and giving money to Contras and Mujahadeen are entirely within the realm of acceptable behaviors. But they still need to be justified by being necessary to stop some larger evil
>>20086I'm sure you were less explicit
>>20087Port Barry doesn't even have a government: it's an ancap paradise, slavery and all. You don't need to self-appoint as some kind of detective.
Just stop "investigating", and there won't be anything for him to worry about.
>>20088Perhaps, but I still wasn't sure what I was doing.
>>20086>inb4 GrappleWe're expanding our domain of protection, so be forewarned
>>20089>To avoid executing the duties of an Emperor, don't be an EmperorYour post makes no sense to me
I've finally done it!!
(FUCK YEAH!!!!)
>>20089Like it sounds like what you are saying is "don't try to save people goyim, go back to sleep." That's not persuasive
>>20084Actually, just a good piece of sandpaper would go a long way for this
>I'm just ignoiing the fighting >>20092Focus on becoming emperor first: it's generally a bad idea to act like you're in charge before you actually are, because that breeds conflict, especially in midst of a recent a recent power vacuume. Better to call your forces a factional army with a defined cause and Port Barry as their base, than to claim actual authority as a governing police force. Paladins are archytypical "crusaders", so it's better to declare the goal to take the Emperor's citadel first and then draw in associates of all kind: a Paladin cannot willingly reach out to evil or chaotic associates, but nothing forbids them from assembling diverse forces under a mutual flag.
tl;Dr: stop trying to be the police and paint yourself a banner that forces of all allignments can assemble under.
>>20094M8, that statue will take up half the city and take months to carve with your low-level stone-manipulating spell. Awesome meme though.
>>20097No no, let him. It will more fun that way
for me >>20095No. I'm saying stop trying to get in the way of muh schemes.
>>20098thanks im gonna do a bit more to it then ill be finished for real.
>>20099I figured it would be very, very, very likely for foreign forces to attack and stomp us if the local narcicist actually tried to crown himself baron or something.
>>20102Why, whatever would give you that impression,... I mean I personally had never thought of such a scenario,... at all,... ever
SHHHHHH >>20097Like, that whole post is literally exactly everything I've been doing. It's Inferius who wants to make the police force. Trumpaladin would only focus on smaller targets much later.
The reason Tracy is under suspicion isn't because she's a villain - she'd have to stand in line for smiting like every one else. It's because she makes pretensions of being Trumpaladin's waifu, and more importantly, because she is carrying Trumpaladin's child, who may or may not be the anti-Christ. Trumpaladin wants his waifu and the mother of his child to be worthy of the role. That's why she falls under more suspicion
\r
>tfw Tracy and Trump's faggots would have gotten into a fist fight by this point if we whee plailying in person
>>20103>>20102I'm going to redirect everyone to
>>20104 again. If you've read it, read it again. It's the most important post
>>20104I can maintain surface-level honor, if you don't needlessly do too much deep "investigation".
Just have your character focus on rallying spirits for his crusade before you go too far in presiding over the ongoings of the areas surrounding Port Barry. It's a neutral city: they won't like being told what to do at first, even if they do cooperate.
>>20107I get that m8. I'm just using the bantz as cautionary foreshadowing. ^_^
I can't say that the next session is going to be terribly developmental as far as the story is concerned, and I'll be letting the players do the lion's share of determining what is explored and who goes where and all that. My main focus as far as sussing out the next few legs of the campaign is determining exactly how many factions were in some way connected to and active within the 'empire', and how they will respond to the news that the Emperor
and his pet are dead, what does that mean for each particular group, and how they will respond to news and the increasing presence of the party.
>>20108On this note, he AND the party have done an exceptional job of being an inspirational presence, and have thus had little difficulty in gaining followers and participants. However, Port Barry has been almost the exclusive witness and beneficiary to the party's actions; one would be operating foolishly to assume that everyone will respond in kind.
>>20112Side quests sound like a good idea to me too.
>>20113thats why i want to help with finding a druid.
>>20112>>20113Yes of course. I figured thats where this was trending, for the immediate future, and everyone appears to be settling in on a particular pursuit/agenda. Plus, that will make it easier for me to provide individual challenges that don't involve adding more hit dice to creatures, or just adding more creatures.
The nerd fight went well, but largely because he underestimated the party. If he had seen the party as a threat, he'd have operated far differently, and there would be alot more craters and grease-spots
>>20114It'd be a cool way to acquire special items/weapons too.
>>20110>Port Barry is NeutralDid you mean to say "was"? It is now Athens after the Persain Wars, or America at the turn of the 20th Century. It is ready to take on glory.
Trumpaladin's child is more important than the crusade or the image. For that, more than mere appearance is essential.
There doesn't have to be actual honor, the targets just have to be assholes. That's literally the only request. I'm sure there are plenty
>>20109>>20110>how they respond to the death of KefkaMy intuition says that most will want to opperate as independent city states, while a few go on conquests, and pirate and bandit lords pop up. But my intuition also says that at least one will want some sort of protectorate relationship with the capital and whoever controls it, especially if there is no vast tribute, and especially if there is an agreement of military protection and commerce in exchange.
>no one will no the partyThey will know who killed Kefja and the Tarrasque. That will mean something to them. If they feared and were subdued by him and the Terrasque, they ought to respect whoever could slay him.
\r
>>20116im ready to go when you are.
Hold on, I'm gonna kill Cortana FOR GOOD
>>20120im goint to inject her into my brain.
>>20117>They will know who killed Kefja and the Tarrasque.Just wait for the countless imposters who'll inevitably show up.
>>20124Then help kill them Goddamn it!
>>20125They'll try to rip off your speeches too, I bet.
>>20126I'll kill them myself then
>>20127ill grapple there heads in.
>>20120Kek. She isn't fully dead, but she is sealed away (not unlike the Terrasque)
>>20124There you go, giving me ideas again
>>20129Fuck it, I'll abandon Plan A and do all of this the hard way
>>20131? I'm not sure I follow. I was talking about Cortana (except the ideas re: false claims of being Kefka's demise)
>>20132That was more of a general statement than a reaction to that specific post
